Of course there is no unix versions of Access.  Microsoft wouldn't create
anything to assist their competitor.  If you are setting up a Linux machine,
what's wrong with setting it up to run a DB server?  MySQL would be quite
suitable as it is quite easy to use, allows you to connect from Windows
machine using MyODBC and you can display the contents on a web page if you
install a web server.  You can also get GUIs for it as well.  But it doesn't
mean you have to rule out other DBs as there are features that aren't yet
implemented in MySQL.  Have a look through the manual and decide for
yourself.
